The Heart is a Garden -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Heart is a Garden The heart is a garden Where things are grown What is found there Depends on seeds sown The planters are people We meet every day They plant things deep And hope for sun's rays But just like all gardens That we walk through The heart can grow weeds When things are askew So we must be diligent Our garden to keep And sort out the things That may cause us to weep We can't stop it It is part of life Somedays are all happiness Somedays bring strife But if we work hard The good seeds will grow And choke all the bad ones Then good over evil will flow I have met some Who forget to weed out The hatred and hurt That brings only doubt And then there are others Who weed everyday And bring sunshine to others In all they do and say Now as I look at my garden To see what grows there I hope to see good things A heart that is fair Let's search the seeds See which ones to sow Faith, hope and trust Are good ones I know Love, peace and laughter Compassion and honor too Respect, caring and support To name just a few As we tend our gardens And harsh winds blow The weeds of evil and doubt We must always know That whatever we do And whatever we say Are the tools we must use To keep bad seeds away
